A major new trail bridge for pedestrians and bicyclists will be constructed to cross the Schuylkill River within Valley Forge National Historical Park. The trail bridge will link the north and south sides of the park with regional trail systems including the Schuylkill River Trail, future Schuylkill River West Trail, Valley Forge's 26 miles of trails, the Chester Valley Trail, and the Patriot's Path.

Bridge project partners include PennDOT, Montgomery County, West Norriton Township, Upper Merion Transportation Authority and Township, and Valley Forge NHP. The bridge is expected to be under construction in late 2013 and completed in the fall of 2015.
